  1. Surprised no one replied! As the owner of a new 2015 that sat at a dealer for 2 years untouched, and with the blue color coolant at the very, very bottom of the LOW mark on the reservoir, this is very timely for me!!
  2. Yeah yeah, I know this is an 'old' thread.. sorry. I, too, am looking for a passenger back rest. My first thought was a Givi top case with their backrest pad. Double duty as luggage and a back rest. However I was chatting with customer support at one of the online retailers, and they didn't recommend it.. They said that since there are only 3 (plastic) mounting points for the top case, it's not safe for a passenger to rely on that as a backrest. Maybe they just didn't want to be liable for safety issues. (Then why does Givi sell a backrest pad for their top case?!?!) In any case, what are your thoughts on using a top case as the passenger backrest? I know it's not 'ideal'.. Ideal would be mounting a Lay-Z-Boy for the passenger (j/k) Like most people, I just want a passenger backrest so they feel a little more secure, during acceleration, and something to lean back on a bit if we're on a longer ride. Thoughts? (I checked out the "Sargent" backrest... my gosh, that little thing is $350 !!! I can get a full Givi top case set up for only a bit more than that much!
  3. Hi! I really would like the cruise control, and perhaps some better fuel mapping over the stock mapping? And, the option for a future upgrade (after market exhaust). Will this "Tune Boy" thing work with this, and can it be "changed" or re-flashed later (say, if I swap out exhausts? I'm not looking for big performance gains, this engine is so awesome. But a smoother throttle would be nice, and then a re-tune if I got an aftermarket exhaust (to lose the Catalytic converter and save some weight.. NOT for loudness!) Thanks!
